Nothing major, just copy-and-paste from master branch to replace aging
code examples, and a little grammmar cleanup.

Support for this variable was dropped in BitBake, see commit
fca9c9e3cb6f8e9f99bf51dc5e8a8d83f4c84c69 ("cooker: Drop support for
BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY").
Drop this variable here as well and rewrite the "Appending Other Layers
Metadata With Your Layer" section to advise to rename the recipe and
check if the bbappend is still relevant - otherwise to use BBWARN.

Add a section on providing global level configuration from the
layer.conf file. Since this file is parsed at an earlier stage in the
parsing process, it's not possible to combine bb.utils.contains and
{DISTRO,MACHINE}_FEATURES to conditionally set some configurations.
This patch documents:
- First that this file can be used for providing such configuration.
- Then demonstrate how to conditionally provide them, using a technique
that is currently used in meta-virtualization
(https://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-virtualization/tree/conf/layer.conf#n50).
Fixes [YOCTO #12688].

As reported by "make sphinx-lint"
Tabs are even removed in Makefile examples,
as Sphinx turns them to spaces anyway in the generated output.

To simplify the style, replace "Following is" and "Following are"
by "here is" and "here are", sounding more natural.
In some cases, also go further by simplifying "Here are/is xxx"
by "xxx are/is" when the "are" or "is" are not two far at
the end of the sentence.
In some cases too, completely remove the sentence, when
it's redundant with the preceding title.

As discussed before with Richard Purdie, the code supports this but the documentation does not.
Developers in general will not notice this or focus on it because they do not mess with the
layer.conf template file, but in my opinion I think more details can help.

A 500 KB source file is always harder to manage,
and can have section title conflicts.
So, the "Common Tasks" document is gone and all
its constituents are moved up one level.
You now have 40 chapters in the Development Tasks Manual.
